Magnetic Hill Park — Attraction in Moncton

We went to magnetic hill park to experience magnetic hill. When we got to the hill itself, it was an absolute cluster F of vehicles going in all directions. They tell you to move over to the left lane beside the white post. Vehicles were trying to exit in the same lane. While we were waiting our turn, the guy in front of us got out of his vehicle and started yelling at us to put our vehicle in neutral and start rolling backwards even though it wasn’t our turn. Once we had our turn, it wasn’t what it’s cracked up to be - in our opinion. You’re rolling backwards down a slight grade to gain momentum to go upgrade? We got frustrated and left.

If anyone from the park Is reading this review, please take note that there needs to be staff coordinating traffic in this area or more signage in place in the area to direct people in lanes and where to wait their turn.

You can read the explanation in the pictures I have posted. Look for the video, which I'll post on YouTube.

Price is $7 per car for a 30-45 second experience. Maybe I'll build one like it in my backyard and charge an admission fee. 😆

Young kids will enjoy the experience. Be prepared to do some...

Kind of gimmicky for $7 just to drive through the road that is just a big illusion. Takes a few minutes to experience it a few times, then its over. But worth it anyways and it is quite unique and you can't find it anywhere else. Consider it a donation to maintain the area and make it a fun place for the kids. Lots of do when...
